Poggio Anima
Asmodeus Sicilia Nero d'Avola
Sicily, Italy
The wine I have selected tonight is the 2016 Poggio Anima Asmodeus Nero D'Avola.
Upon first sniff this wine shows very tight. I think we will have to wait awhile to let it open up. After about 2 hours this wine starts to show itself. I am getting black cherry, black plum, raspberry, licorice, spices, vanilla and violets.
On the palate it also was a very difficult wine at the beginning. Letting it open up over those 2 hours was very beneficial, it really opened up and showed dark cherry, strawberry, tart plum, licorice, herbs, spice , vanilla and dusty earth.
This is a medium to full bodied wine with medium + acidity and medium + fine tannins that leads to a medium to long finish. Stay safe and enjoy your rest of the week. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷

Prunes, black cherry, charcoal, raisins, roasted red pepper. Less full bodied than I expected. Daisies? Definitely let this breathe.
